No More Piles
How to End Terrible Affony
Without Salves or Cutting
External treatments cannot per
mnnently end Piles. Nor docs cutting
remove the cause.
The cause 1b internal bad circula
tion of the blood in the lower bowel.
The veins are flabby the bowel walls
weak the parts almost dead. To
quickly and safely rid yourself of
piles an Internal medicine must be
used to heal and strengthen the af
fected parts.
Dr. J. 8. Leonhardt. a specialist,
after years of study discovered a real
Internal Pile remedy. He named his
prescription HEM-ROID, and pre
scribed it for 1000 patients, with the
marvelous record of success In 960
caes. and then decided every Pile
sufferer should be able to get HEM
KOID from their own druggist.
Don't waste time on external rem
